Help Quick!! This land [of South America] is very pleasing, full of an infinite number of very tall trees which never lose their

leaves and throughout the year are fragrant with the sweetest aromas and yield an endless supply of fruits, many of which are good to taste and conducive to bodily health. The fields produce many herbs and flowers and most delicious and wholesome roots that I fancied myself near the Terrestrial Paradise. What shall we say of the multitude of birds and their plumes and colours and singing and their numbers and their beauty? I am unwilling to enlarge upon this description, because I doubt if I would be believed. . . . We saw so many . . . animals that I believe so many species could not have entered Noah’s ark. We saw many wild hogs, wild goats, stags and does, hares, and rabbits, but of domestic animals, not one.”

How was the Vietnam War different from the Korean War?
kkurt [141]

The correct answer is D. The main difference between the Vietnam War and the Korean War was that the Vietnam War resulted in an increase in territory for communist forces, but the Korean War did not.

The Vietnam War ended with a communist victory, where North Vietnam annexed the territories of South Vietnam, unifying them under the name of Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

The Korean War, on the other hand, resulted in a status quo ante bellum, with minimal territorial changes and without a clear victor. Therefore, North Korea, communist, and South Korea, capitalist, maintained their territories, a situation that remains until today.
